Hi, I’m Alysa Cargiulo — Your Design Partner

Have you ever walked into someone’s home and just felt a genuine sense of calm and awe? In today’s busy world, our homes should be a place of relaxation and happiness. Are you overwhelmed by the thought of choosing from hundreds of paint colors, wallpapers, and fabric samples? Does furnishing a room with furniture, décor, and art feel daunting because you're strapped for time and don’t know where to start? Or maybe you trust your taste but just need a partner-in-crime to help you make decisions?

So many of the people in my community are trying hard to prioritize the things they love — work, travel, raising families, and pursuing hobbies. This often means that they never truly “move in” to their homes. I have a great eye for design and know how to shepherd a project from start to finish, making it an enjoyable experience. But most importantly — this is what I LOVE to do! To me, good design isn’t just about creating a space that reflects you and makes you happy, but is also about leaving you with the thought, “Wow, that was actually really fun.”

With a decades-long background in project management and client services, a love for mixing function with flair, and a serious knack for layering colors, textures, and patterns, I bring a unique perspective to every project.

When I’m not researching new design trends or honing my skills, you’ll find me coaching my kids’ sports teams, planning events for friends and family, working hard on my tennis game, walking my dog Braxton, or hunting for old furniture and antiques.

Let’s make your home a place you absolutely love.
